    Avgas Prices

    Very true, we get a PFD check in October. It's been around $1500 +/- for the past 10 years. That really does not come close to making up for high property taxes, food, utilities, fuel for heating/auto/plane, not to mention air fare to get out of town. Not complaining it is what it is.

    Any Hunters in Here?

    I'm surprised that not more folks recommenced the 30-30 lever action. It is one of my favorite rifles passed down from my dad. The 30-30 is good up to 150/200 yards. That would be fine for the hogs and for most deer hunts.

    I spent yesterday helping flush the airframe with fresh water. The salvage team a friend, his father-in-law and one of the tower controllers set out to locate the plane and tie a rope on it and drag it as close to shore as possible. It took several hours to locate the plane as it was fully...
